I have a dilema...

WAS/WW accused me of being controlling (I was being a responsible parent and supportive husband... W had become the complete opposite). W had also accused me of looking for excuses to talk to her - which isn't true, and besides we have to communicate at times because we have kids and only speak about them.

The kids don't call W and she thinks that is down to me being controlling. I did a 180 last night and I got the kids to call W and leave a phone message. W later sent me a text to say she hadn't received it (yeah right) . W called early this morning (a first) to speak to the kids. I just answered the phone and gave it to the kids.

However, me asking the kids to call their mum (so that I'm not seen as controlling), wouldn't that be cake eating for W?
